Chapter 164 Destroying Buddha!The Duke returns!Famous sayings through the ages!Another vision! 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

Inside the tribute courtyard.

Gu Jinnian's eyes were cold.

He really didn't expect that the eight-grievance monk would dare to say such a thing.

This is no longer provocative and disgusting.

These words almost trampled the resentful souls of those innocent people in the Great Xia Dynasty under their feet.

Give the chief criminal a longevity card?
What kind of person can say this?
No, is this something that people can say?

"Amitabha."

"Master Hou."

"In the eyes of my Buddhist school, there is no evil to speak of. Everyone has their own standpoint. You are all living in a sea of ​​suffering. For the Huns, they are for survival."

"As for the Daxia people, they may be invaders."

"But for our Buddhist sect, they are all living beings struggling in the sea of ​​suffering."

"My Buddhist sect hopes to resolve the grievances between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Xiongnu Kingdom, enshrine these people, and set up longevity cards for them."

"In this way, the Huns will also let go of their grievances. After all, for Da Xia, he has already avenged his blood, and it is time to let go of his obsession."

The eight resentment monks spoke lightly, and what they said was righteous and compassionate.

But to Gu Jinnian's ears, such a voice was extremely harsh and disgusting.

"Already avenged blood?"

"It's really ridiculous."

"I am the Twelve Cities of Great Xia, and there are millions of dead souls, and I am still looking at the sky with my eyes open."

"You told Ben Hou that you have avenged your blood?"

"Is it so ridiculous to wait for Buddhism?"

Gu Jinnian made a sound, staring at the other party with cold eyes.

"Amitabha."

"Master Hou, what happened in the past is already in the past."

"The Xiongnu Kingdom has already let go of this matter, so why is Lord Hou still obsessed with it?"

"Some things should be forgotten. People live in the present and walk in the future. Things in the past are obsessions. If you pick them up, they are karma."

Eight Resentment Divine Monk clasped his hands together, looked at Gu Jinnian and said so.

His voice made many common people and scholars angry, and some soldiers even clenched their weapons tightly, with a cold look in their eyes.

The words said by the eight grievances monks are simply beyond the reach of human beings.

"Forgetting is equal to a second massacre."

"This Marquis doesn't know what you came here for. There is absolutely no way that this Marquis will let you take this corpse away."

"Go back and tell the Huns that Great Xia's desire to destroy the Huns has never faded away. Don't think that peace will be all right."

Gu Jinnian's voice was cold.

This is his strongest response.

Don't gossip here, one day, the iron cavalry of the Great Xia Dynasty will step into the court of the Huns.

This is feud.

Hearing this, the Eighth Resentment Divine Monk just shook his head and said.

"Amitabha."

"The old monk has already taken the bones away."

"If there is no accident, it will be sent to Wulian Temple today. At that time, there will be a Buddhist monk who will set up a longevity card for him and pray for good fortune."

"Master Hou, you are too hostile, and the killing in your heart is too deep. Sooner or later, Master Hou will be punished by heaven and earth for this killing."

"If Lord Hou is willing, this old monk can help Lord Hou wash away the sins in his heart. In this way, Master Hou will not have to suffer from the karma of reincarnation in the future."

The Eighth Resentment Divine Monk spoke, disapprovingly.

"Already taken away?"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"Okay."

"Buddhism's hand can actually be inserted into my Daxia government. It's powerful, powerful, really powerful."

Gu Jinnian didn't pay attention to the words of the eight resentful monks, he was just astonished that the hand of the Buddhist sect had already penetrated into the government of Daxia.

These principal criminals were executed by Ling Chi a long time ago. Gu Jinnian had a plan to build a temple for their bones, suppress these bones, let the people scold them, and let scholars remember this period of hatred.

But what I didn't expect was that the other party had already taken it away, and if the eight resentment monks didn't say anything, there would really be a feeling of ignorance.

This is where Gu Jinnian was angry.

He knew that the Buddhist sect was very powerful, but he did not expect that the Buddhist sect's power could interfere with the Daxia government.

Let the Ministry of Criminal Justice hand over the bones directly.

This is where Gu Jinnian was angry.

"Amitabha."

"Master Hou, not all people in Daxia are fond of killing. In fact, many people hope that peace is the most important thing. Lord Hou is the grandson of Lord Zhen. After being a general, what is the reason for wanting to fight? Everyone understands."

"But Lord Hou, no matter what, don't cause the people of the world to suffer because of your own selfish desires."

"When is it time to repay the injustice? You have said it yourself, Lord Hou. You must establish your heart for the world, establish your life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past saints, and bring peace to all generations. After hearing these four words, I also feel deeply for Lord Hou." admire."

"I don't think Hou Ye must be a person who likes to kill. It should be that after Hou Ye slaughtered 30 Xiongnu cavalry, he was contaminated with karma. 30 resentful souls entangled Hou Ye, so that he became a demon every step of the way."

"Lord Hou, the authorities are delusional."

The Eighth Resentment Divine Monk was very eloquent. He didn't insult Gu Jinnian a word, but there was not a word in his words that was not belittling Gu Jinnian.

But Gu Jinnian ignored the words of the Eighth Resentment Monk.

Instead, he stared at the other party and said in an extremely cold voice.

"This Marquis will give you three days to hand over the bones, otherwise Ben Marquis will personally write a memorial to exterminate the Buddha."

Gu Jinnian looked at the other party, and he issued an ultimatum.

Within three days, return the bones. He doesn't care about this matter with the other party. Now the Great Xia Dynasty really can't make enemies. Peace of mind is the kingly way.

If it wasn't for this, Gu Jinnian would have led his troops to destroy the Buddha by now.

When the word extermination of Buddha was said, for a moment, I don't know how many people frowned. Even the great Confucian beside Gu Jinnian couldn't help but speak out, secretly reminding Gu Jinnian.

I hope that Gu Jinnian will not be provoked by the other party and say something that should not be said.

They also hated Buddhism, and hated the behavior of Buddhism, but the word "destroying Buddha" really couldn't be said nonsense.

Buddhism is protected by heaven and earth, just like scholars, destroying Buddha will definitely bring about ominous things, and Buddhism is extremely powerful.

The Xiongnu Kingdom, the Fuluo Dynasty, the Great Jin Dynasty, and the Zhongzhou Dynasty basically had no place that was not infiltrated by Buddhism.

It is nothing more than the depth of penetration.

It's just that Gu Jinnian didn't respond to these people's dissuasion, he just looked at the eight grudges.

The opponent is a peerless master of Buddhism, and it is impossible to suppress it by force. The only way to suppress the opponent is to use the court.

"Amitabha."

"Master Hou, your intention to kill is too deep. Buddhism is only doing what Buddhism should do. Master Hou will destroy Buddha at every turn."

"Such killing intent will kill Lord Hou one day sooner or later."

The eight resentment monks seemed to make it clear that they wanted to come here to disgust Gu Jinnian, just to stimulate Gu Jinnian.

"To shut up."

"It's not up to you to judge how the Marquis is."

"Stop playing tricks here."

"I will only give you three days. After three days, the imperial examination will end. If the bones are not returned, the Buddha will be destroyed in Daxia."

Gu Jinnian was too lazy to talk.

These are his last words.

After saying this, Gu Jinnian turned and left, and returned to the tribute courtyard. He didn't want to have any trouble with this eight-grievance monk.

Complete waste of time.

"Master Hou."

"Master Hou has not given me an explanation about the Ata Temple."

However, the eight resentment monks seemed to not want Gu Jinnian to leave like this at all, and he continued to ask about Ata Temple.

You can follow the eight resentment monks to speak.

A voice could not help but sound.

"Didn't Marquis Tianming explain the Ata Temple matter clearly?"

"This matter has nothing to do with Lord Hou. It was done by the old man Tianmo. If you Buddhists ask for an explanation, go to the old man Tianmo to ask for it."

"Don't ask for it in my Great Xia territory."

"Also, this is the Gongyuan, my Daxia Gongyuan, and tomorrow is the day of the imperial examination. You are here to disturb the scholars around you. What do you mean?"

"Eight Resentment Divine Monk, do you think that no one in my Great Xia can suppress you?"

sounded.

It was the voice of Yang Kai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. He brought a group of officials of the Ministry of Rites and appeared outside the Gong Yuan, looking at the latter with cold eyes.

Seeing Yang Kai appear.

All of a sudden, the great Confucian scholars in the tribute courtyard also opened their mouths and bowed to Yang Kai.

But Eight Resentment Divine Monk clasped his hands together, facing Yang Kai, he didn't say much, but recited a sentence of Amitabha.

"Although this matter has nothing to do with Lord Hou, the cause is not completely related to Lord Hou."

"I also ask Yang Shangshu to come forward and persuade Lord Hou. I hope Lord Hou can come forward and pray to the innocent monks of my Buddhist sect to resolve the grievances and prevent my Buddhist sect from prejudice against Lord Hou."

"Buddhist monks and old monks can explain it, but those believers have difficulty explaining it."

"Yang Shangshu is the Minister of Rites of the Great Xia, the leader of scholars, he is sensible and understands the truth, please trouble Yang Shangshu."

The Eighth Resentment God Monk almost took his shamelessness to the extreme, Gu Jinnian was gone, and he wanted Gu Jinnian to solve this matter.

Hearing this, the people were all angry.

The eight grievance monks seemed to come here to act as peacemakers, as if there was a grievance, but the implication was that they regarded Gu Jinnian as the real murderer, so that's fine, after all, they did have something to do with Gu Jinnian.

It's so disgusting to take the bones back and set up the longevity card. Gu Jinnian didn't even bother to talk to him, and he was still here.

All of a sudden, the people frowned one by one, but their status was humble, so it was difficult to say anything.

"roll!"

Facing the Eight Resentments Divine Monk, Yang Kai's eyes were full of dislike and disgust, he spoke directly and let the other party go.

This guy's mouth is disgusting, and he calls it this and that, and the words are full of insinuations.

Yang Kai also thought it was dead.

As soon as these words were said, the common people immediately burst out laughing, and even some scholars clapped their hands and applauded.

But the eight resentment monks couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

He really didn't expect that the dignified Minister of Rites would say such a thing.

Gu Jinnian said such a thing, he can accept it, Yang Kai is the Minister of Rites, over 60 years old, logically it shouldn't be like this.

For a moment, the eight resentment monks didn't know what to say.

"Stop disgusting people here."

"Is it true that the old man doesn't know the method of Buddhism?"

"For the matter of returning the bones, the old man will definitely join the Ministry of Punishments."

"This old man tells you, it's because Duke Zhen didn't come back. If Duke Zhen comes back, you still dare to speak nonsense here."

"Go back to Ximo, just wait, you still want to let Buddhism enter my Great Xia Dynasty?"

"Today, the old man will put his words here. As long as the old man is in the court for a day, Buddhism will not even think about entering the Great Xia Dynasty."

Yang Kai spoke again, put down his harsh words, and after finishing speaking, he left without giving any face to the eight grudges, and entered the tribute courtyard, looking for Gu Jinnian.

But the eight resentment monks looked unchanged on the surface, but frowned inwardly.

He is not afraid of others, but he still doesn't want to directly offend Yang Kai. After all, Yang Kai is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the Buddhist sects stationed in Da Xia are all controlled by Yang Kai. If he really offends Yang Kai, many things are indeed difficult to carry out.

"Amitabha."

"Yang Shangshu, the old monk's obsession is a bit deep, and I hope Lord Shangshu will not be angry."

After the Eighth Resentment Monk recited Amitabha Buddha, he turned and left, and the common people along the way treated each other coldly.

But he didn't have any ideas, because the goal had already been achieved, and the next step was to wait for Gu Jinnian to make a move.

At this moment.

Inside the tribute courtyard.

Yang Kai walked quickly to the room where Gu Jinnian was.

In the room, Gu Jinnian was writing furiously.

Yang Kai didn't speak, but stood aside and waited quietly.

After about half an hour, Gu Jinnian finally put down the pen in his hand slowly.

"What did you write?"

Yang Kai's voice sounded, asking Gu Jinnian directly.

Hearing Yang Kai's voice, Gu Jinnian looked up, and then spoke slowly.

"Buddha extermination policy."

Gu Jinnian's voice was very calm, but in Yang Kai's ears, it sounded like thunder.

"Jin Nian."

"The Eighth Resentment Divine Monk obviously has a purpose. He seems to be deliberately trying to provoke you and let you take the initiative to destroy the Buddha."

"If there is no accident, the Buddhist sect has already set a trap. If you destroy the Buddha, the Buddhist sect will definitely use this as an excuse. When the time comes, they will ask you to raise a teacher. The power of the Buddhist sect is definitely not as simple as we imagined."

"You are now a doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and the old man is a minister of the Ministry of Rites. If you really want to suppress Buddhism, there are too many ways. There is no need to take such drastic measures as destroying Buddhism."

Yang Kai said, he is not stupid, he can see through the thoughts of the eight resentment monks at a glance.

Wanting to provoke Gu Jinnian on purpose, and then use this as an excuse to trouble Gu Jinnian, this is a trap, a trap set in front of him.

Naturally, he didn't want Gu Jinnian to risk himself.

"I see."

"I understood what he was thinking when he said that he wanted to give the Xiongnu leader a longevity card."

"It's just that, sooner or later, I will show His Majesty this strategy for destroying Buddha. His coming today is nothing more than letting me advance the time."

Gu Jinnian nodded, he was not stupid, he knew that the eight resentment monks wanted to irritate him.

As for why he angered himself, Gu Jinnian couldn't guess for the time being, nor did he want to guess.

"Since you know it, why do you still do it?"

This time Yang Kai couldn't help frowning.

However, Gu Jinnian did not answer, but handed over the policy of exterminating Buddhism to the other party.

"Master Shangshu, take a look first."

Gu Jinnian didn't hesitate, and gave the other party the strategy of destroying Buddha.

At the moment, Yang Kai picked up the Buddha Extermination Policy and watched it carefully.

About half an hour later.

The more Yang Kai looked, the more frightened he became, and the more dignified his expression became.

In the end, Yang Kai held on tightly to the strategy of destroying Buddha, looking at Gu Jinnian and saying.

"Jin Nian, is there no falsehood in this policy of exterminating Buddhism?"

Yang Kai was stunned. He thought that Gu Jinnian's extermination of Buddhism was because he hated Buddhism, but what he didn't expect was that Gu Jinnian's extermination of Buddha had a deeper meaning.

"Yang Shangshu."

"Buddhism that is not controlled is a huge cancer for the dynasty."

"The policy of the next official is also clearly written, there is no falsehood."

"Buddhist monks do not pay taxes, do not work, and collect gold and silver from Daxia. This is one of the exterminations of Buddha."

"But what is really terrifying is thought control. Scholars can distinguish right from wrong, at least their purpose is to enter the court as an official, serve the country, eat the king's salary, and be loyal to the king."

"However, in the eyes of Buddhism, there is no dynasty, no right or wrong, and they hold the sword of good and evil. Everything is up to them."

"If the Buddhism is really strong, the king's power is not as good as the Buddha's power, and an imperial decree from your majesty is not as good as a word from a Buddhist monk. At that time, it will not help."

"The extermination of Buddha will have a huge impact on the Great Xia Dynasty, but the success of the extermination of Buddha this time will not benefit the Great Xia Dynasty in the short term, but it will benefit the Great Xia Dynasty in the future. At least the Great Xia Dynasty will never be controlled by Buddhism."

Gu Jinnian spoke up.

Why did he destroy Buddha?

It's not because Buddhism is bad.

It's not because Buddhism offended him.

It is the control of false Buddhas.

The real Buddhist monks, they save the people in the world, and let the people in the world do good deeds. If the eight grievances appeared today, they would beg themselves to let the main culprits go, and Gu Jinnian would not be angry.

Because the other party is compassionate, it is reasonable and reasonable to do so, but I will not agree.

But what is the eight resentment monks who appeared today?He has been involved in government affairs.

Is this Buddha?

A real eminent monk hopes that everyone will be kind, rather than meddling with dynastic politics.

These are all under the banner of Buddhism, just for their own profit.

Therefore, Gu Jinnian's determination to destroy Buddha did not waver in the slightest.

At this time, Yang Kai was silent, he kept looking at this Buddha Extermination Policy.

After nearly half an hour, Yang Kai couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Jinnian, I will hand over this policy of destroying Buddha to Your Majesty right now for His Majesty to read, if His Majesty is also willing to destroy Buddha."

"Old man, I will definitely support you."

Yang Kai finally handed over this matter to Emperor Yongsheng, and let Emperor Yongsheng make a decision.

"kindness."

Gu Jinnian nodded.

He gave the eight resentment monks a chance to return the bones within three days, and he could bear with this matter, if he didn't return the bones within three days.

Once the imperial examination is over, he will never let it go.

"Okay, the imperial examinations are all in your charge."

"If the policy of destroying Buddha is handed over to His Majesty, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back for two days."

Yang Kai smiled bitterly, and then left the place.

Watching Yang Kai leave.

Gu Jinnian also became quiet.

in this way.

An hour later.

Inside the palace.

After Emperor Yongsheng read Gu Jinnian's plan to destroy Buddhism, he was silent for a long time.

Yang Kai kept quiet in the Hall of Mental Cultivation without saying a word.

After waiting for a long time, Emperor Yongsheng finally spoke out slowly.

"Yang Aiqing thinks, how is Jinnian's strategy written?"

Emperor Yongsheng looked at Yang Kai and asked calmly.

"His Majesty."

"At first, the old man just thought that Marquis of Destiny was just a little displeased with Buddhism, but after reading this theory."

"The old man believes that there is not a single sentence wrong in the words of the Marquis of Destiny, and the hidden dangers of Buddhism are by no means as simple as the aristocratic families, the likes of the immortals, and the chaos of the vassal kings."

"The aristocratic families occupy various places. What they care about is their interests. If they are given interests, they will not become a hidden danger."

"Immortal sects and others don't dare to go down the mountain at will because of secular causes and effects. Besides, those who cultivate immortals also need spiritual roots. The number is limited after all, and it is not enough to cause trouble."

"As for the vassal chaos, if the country is strong, it will be able to solve the problem fundamentally."

"But Buddhism is different. You don't need a spiritual root to become a monk. You can be exempted from hard labor by cutting your hair, but you don't have to pay taxes. It's like a cancer that is absorbed on the dynasty."

"But it's not really scary. The most terrifying thing is those believers. Dare to ask Your Majesty, do Buddhist believers think that the Buddha is great, or that Your Majesty is great?"

Yang Kai talked and talked, but finally he simply opened his mouth.

At this point, there is no need to hide.

Sure enough, after saying this, Emperor Yongsheng's face couldn't help but change.

Is it the Buddha or the Emperor?

This question is too deep.

For the emperor, he doesn't hate corrupt officials, he doesn't hate profiteers, he doesn't fear princes who fish and meat people, and he doesn't fear nobles who enjoy themselves.

What he was afraid of were ambitious people and people who wanted to rebel, and all of this was because he was afraid that someone would divide his power or dilute his own power.

What Yang Kai said.

Touch the reverse scale of any emperor.

Who is more powerful than the imperial power or the divine power?
Naturally, Emperor Yongsheng would not compare with gods and Buddhas, after all, it is impossible for gods and Buddhas to appear in the world seriously.

But I can't stand some people doing what they want in the name of theocracy.

"Six ministers, Prime Minister Li Shan, entered the palace."

In the end, Emperor Yongsheng spoke with a sullen face.

He realized the biggest problem.

Soon, someone went to inform, and Emperor Yongsheng looked at Yang Kaidao.

"If the Buddha is really destroyed."

"Based on Daxia's current situation, can it be done?"

Emperor Yongsheng looked at Yang Kai and asked.

"That depends on whether His Majesty will destroy part of it or completely destroy it."

Yang Kai thought for a while, then asked.

"Total extinction."

Emperor Yongsheng said coldly.

Hearing this, Yang Kai looked a little dignified.

After a while, he spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty, I think it can be completely wiped out, but be prepared for King Ning's rebellion."

This is Yang Kai's answer.

For a moment, Emperor Yongsheng was silent.

in this way.

With the arrival of the six ministers and Prime Minister Li Shan, controversy gradually arose in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as the person arrived, Yang Kai directly joined Xu Ping, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

About the dead body.

However, Xu Ping fought hard with reason, thinking that the return of the bones was to hope for friendship between the two countries, and taking these bones back could do nothing, and he didn't know that the eight resentment monks wanted to take them back to set up the longevity card.

And this matter, he also asked Li Shan and got permission.

It's just that regarding this matter, Emperor Yongsheng didn't pursue anything, but directly showed them the strategy of destroying Buddha.

After reading it.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the controversy continued.

The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Rites fully agree with Gu Jinnian's point of view, especially the Ministry of Households. He hates the fact that Buddhist monks do not pay taxes. The Ministry of Officials also attaches great importance to the matter of labor.

The Ministry of War remains neutral on this matter, he doesn’t care whether it will be destroyed or not, but what is considered is what will be the consequences of destroying the Buddha, and whether there will be another war at that time, and it is very likely to be a civil strife, so Zhao Yiyang, Minister of the Ministry of War, is thinking .

As for the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it was also willing to exterminate Buddhism. After all, Buddhist monks committed crimes, and locals often encountered some troubles in arresting people. However, the previous three ministries had already advocated the extermination of Buddhism, and Xu Ping chose not to advocate it, but chose to give up.

Lest in the eyes of His Majesty, they are like a faction.

The Ministry of Industry is also supportive, but just like the Ministry of Punishment, in the eyes of the Ministry of Industry, these young men go to serve as soldiers one by one. How can the dynasty be built?

But Li Shan gave a different answer.

He didn't support Buddhism, but carefully analyzed how much trouble it would bring if the Buddha was destroyed.

"His Majesty."

"If the Buddha is destroyed, the Fuluo Dynasty and the Dajin Dynasty will definitely take this opportunity to criticize our Daxia Dynasty, and the influence of the Buddhist sect will be huge. If the Buddha is really destroyed, it will cause catastrophe."

"If the vassal king comes forward at that time, it is likely to cause some unnecessary troubles."

"I believe that the matter of exterminating Buddhism can be put aside temporarily, and the expansion of Buddhism should be stopped first, and then the Ministry of Rites will strictly control it."

"This is the best policy."

Li Shan said, this is his idea.

His words silenced the six ministers. It was precisely because of this that although they advocated the destruction of Buddha, they did not fully agree.

To be afraid is to be afraid of this.

After listening to everyone's words.

Emperor Yongsheng was slightly silent.

He is not worried about this, what he is most worried about is that an unprecedented natural disaster is about to occur in the Great Xia Dynasty.

At this juncture, if the Buddha is really destroyed, it will be the real trouble.

It's been a long time.

Emperor Yongsheng spoke out.

"Okay, I understand, you can step back."

Emperor Yongsheng asked them to come here, not for them to make a choice, but for them to provide some opinions.

Hearing this, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and then they left without saying a word.

After everyone leaves.

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Emperor Yongsheng remained silent.

After a while, his voice sounded.

"Come here, send a secret order to let Mr. Zhen Guo return to Beijing as soon as possible!"

He spoke, his voice was cold.

Under the candlelight, his face was solemn, but his eyes were full of coldness.

in this way.

In the blink of an eye.

Two days passed.

early morning.

The ugly time has not yet come.

Outside the Gongyuan.

A large number of students have gathered, they dare not be late, they came here earlier, and some scholars even came outside the tribute courtyard when they were late.

This is an imperial examination held every three years, and no one dares to miss it.

From the children's examination to the imperial examination, they have gone through ten years.

Ten years of studying hard in the cold window is just for this moment today.

In the Tribute Academy, the soldiers are also strictly controlling, waiting for scholars to enter the Tribute Academy.

clang.

Yin Shi.

With a bell ringing.

At this moment, outside the Gongyuan, countless students poured into the examination room. There were layers of censorship at the door. Clothes and boots had to be checked carefully, just for fear of cheating.

It's not that I don't believe these scholars, but I'm afraid that there will always be a few people who want to cheat. Once there is a fraud, it is likely to be thoroughly investigated. If it causes serious trouble, the imperial examination results will be cancelled, and it will be reopened.

And some scholars, if they can't explain clearly, they will be imprisoned.

So be strict, it is for your own good and for the good of others.

A full hour.

After twelve entrances, all candidates finally gathered in the Tribute Court.

There are still two hours before the imperial examination.

Candidates entered the tribute courtyard, and after passing the entrance, they came to the outside of the main hall and bowed to the saints and sages on both sides. This is the etiquette system.

Only after worshiping the saints and sages can they enter the interior.

At this time, Gu Jinnian was already in the inner courtyard, waiting for this group of scholars.

Not only Gu Jinnian, but all the officials of the Ministry of Rites, big and small, including some great Confucian scholars, were waiting in the inner courtyard.

Before the imperial examination, as the chief examiner, he should say a few words of diligence to the students to reduce the burden on the candidates.

After about a stick of incense.

The inner courtyard is full of candidates, densely packed at a glance.

However, Gu Jinnian still saw many acquaintances, classmates from Daxia Academy, Wang Fugui, Jiang Yezhou, Yu Yi and He Zhai.

clang.

Another bell.

As the bell rang, all the scholars bowed deeply to Gu Jinnian and the others.

"Students, I greet you gentlemen."

The voices of the students were loud and full of vigor.

"You are exempt."

At this time, the voice of Yang Kai sounded.

Then he looked at the candidates and said slowly.

"Today is the Imperial Examination in the Great Xia Jiayi Year, and the examiner is Gu Jinnian, Marquis of Destiny."

"During the imperial examination, you must not make loud noises, do not cheat for personal gain, and do not do weird things. If you find out, you will be expelled from the examination room in public, convicted of disturbing the examination room, and you will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination within six years."

"Do you understand?"

Yang Kai said, he said this many times.

"Student understands, thank you sir."

The students spoke again.

Seeing this scene, Yang Kai nodded, then looked at Gu Jinnian and said.

"Master Hou, would you like to say a few words?"

He opened his mouth and asked like this.

"kindness."

Gu Jinnian cupped his hands, he did have something to say.

At that moment, Gu Jinnian took a step forward.

Looking at the crowd, all the students also looked at Gu Jinnian. They were full of curiosity about Gu Jinnian.

A year ago, they had heard of Gu Jinnian's name more or less, but they were all bad deeds, but one year later, the three words Gu Jinnian, no matter in Daxia or in the Eastern Wasteland, were all Like thunder.

Especially Confucianism and Taoism.

Gu Jinnian's reputation has reached the peak, the only thing he lacks is his age.

At this moment, they were also very curious about what Gu Jinnian would say at this time.

Wang Fugui and the others looked at Gu Jinnian with curiosity in their eyes.

Under the scorching sun.

Inside the tribute courtyard.

Gu Jinnian looked at the crowd, then spoke slowly.

"The sky and the earth are blue, and the universe is vast, and the scholars of the Great Xia should stand upright and strive for self-improvement!"

sounded.

Deafening.

Gu Jinnian's eyes were extremely firm, he didn't say anything diligent, but explained some truths.

"When the sun rises in the future, the great Xia is the scholar, so it is the responsibility of the great Xia scholar!"

"So today's responsibility is not with others, but with me, the scholar!"

When Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, his eyes were extremely firm, looking at all the candidates in front of him, all of them were well-read poets.

Today, Gu Jinnian uses this article to motivate and inspire them.

"The red sun is just rising, and its path is bright; the river flows out and flows down into the ocean."

"The potential dragon soars into the abyss, and the scales and claws fly; the breast tiger howls in the valley, and the beasts tremble. The falcon tries its wings, and the wind and dust absorb it;"

Gu Jinnian's voice gradually became agitated.

This is a boy's talk, although Gu Jinnian modified it a little or two, but it does not affect its own appeal.

The rise and fall of Great Xia.

It lies in these scholars, in these young scholars.

They are like the rising sun, which has just risen and is shining brightly, like a river flowing into the ocean, forming a vast ocean.

Like a potential dragon, it soars into the sky.

Another tiger cub, seemingly weak, but under the roar of the tiger, all the beasts were terrified.

This sentence, each idiom, the blood of these scholars who said it is so passionate, they can't wait to pick up their pens and write ten-thousand-character articles immediately.

In the end, even these great Confucians and officials of the Ministry of Rites, after listening to such passionate words.

I can't help shortness of breath and feel hot blood.

"Everyone."

"Today's imperial examination, regardless of whether it is successful or not, I would like to give you two sentences."

After finishing the article, Gu Jinnian took a deep breath.

Feelings brewing.

present.

Everyone raised their ears, waiting for Gu Jinnian's shocking words.

"When I was studying, it was a ten-year cold window. After the imperial examination, the high school students would weep with joy, and those who failed the exam would be sad and vicissitudes of life."

"However, as scholars of my generation, we should not judge heroes by success or failure for a while. We are like the rising sun. Dark clouds can cover the sun for a while, but they cannot cover the sun for a lifetime."

"Notice."

Speaking of this, Gu Jinnian was surrounded by talents.

Then turned into a writing pen.

Above the void, golden characters fell.

[Shushan has roads and diligence as a path]

[Learn the sea without boundaries and work hard]

Gu Jinnian wrote slowly, this was what he wanted to say and what he wanted to express.

There is no shortcut or smooth sailing in the road of reading.

If you want to take a shortcut, you can only find it from Book Mountain.

If you want to become a real scholar, you can only rely on suffering like Xuehai.

Only hard work.

Only hard work.

to be successful.

"That's a great word."

"Wonderful."

"The language of heaven and man, this is the language of heaven and man."

"The mountain of books has roads and diligence as the path, and the sea of ​​learning is boundless and hard work. With these fourteen characters alone, it can be an eternal speech for Confucianism and Taoism."

At this moment, the students were still indulging in these words.

But these great Confucianists showed surprise in their eyes, applauded again and again, and seemed very excited.

Fourteen simple words, all the core of the scholar.

Even they were shocked by it.

This is a persuasive essay.

There are many great Confucian scholars who have written persuasive essays in ancient and modern times, but after all, none of them are as good as this sentence.

Most of the persuasive essays are thousands of words eloquent, and they are not easy to sing. Although the words are pearls, they are dedicated to persuading people to learn.

It's really not as good as Gu Jinnian's fourteen characters,
"The mountain of books has road and diligence as the path, and the sea of ​​learning has no end to work hard."

"Thank you for your advice, sir. This is a golden word, and the students will benefit from it for a lifetime."

At this moment, when Yu Yi spoke, he felt admiration, and bowed deeply to Gu Jinnian.

Before, he felt admiration for Gu Jinnian, admiring Gu Jinnian for his life for the people, but now he is deeply impressed by Gu Jinnian.

I was completely impressed by Gu Jinnian's talent.

As Yu Yi spoke, the rest of the people followed suit.

He bowed deeply to Gu Jinnian.

Also at this time.

Over the Gongyuan.

Groups of golden auspicious clouds appeared, shining on every student.

"A famous saying through the ages, this is a famous saying through the ages."

"The famous words of the ages are born, and the talents are transformed into clouds, and they bless the examinees. What they do today can be passed down through the ages."

"The sage of future generations is well-deserved."

"I would like to thank Lord Hou for speaking the fourteen golden words."

All the great scholars also opened their mouths together, and bowed deeply to Gu Jinnian.

These fourteen words of Gu Jinnian will inevitably have a huge impact on the Great Xia Dynasty and even the whole world.

The terrifying talent fell into Gu Jinnian's body, and a golden fruit grew on the tree of sentient beings.

clang.

At this time, another bell rang.

It means that the candidate is going to be admitted to the hospital.

"The imperial examination begins."

Hearing the bell, Gu Jinnian looked extremely calm.

He speaks.

The examinees started to move one after another, walked towards the courtyard, came to their own examination room, and began to prepare for the imperial examination.

A quarter of an hour later.

The examiners also took out the examination questions one after another.

Prosperity.

Take the prosperous age as the theme.

At the moment, the examinees began to study ink and think seriously.

And Gu Jinnian also came to the back, waiting for the candidates' answer sheets.

The imperial examination in Daxia is in eight-hyun script, but because the exam questions are different this year, only four-hyun script is required.

It will be over in two days and one night.

Gu Jinnian sat in the backyard, waiting for the answer sheet.

At the same time, he was also waiting for the choice of the eight resentful monks.

in this way.

until late at night.

The first answer sheet is out.

Someone was extremely confident and handed in the answer sheet, attracting several great Confucian scholars to wait and see together.

On the answer sheet, there is no name, this is to prevent collusion.

It's just that the fonts on it are exquisite, and the strokes are extremely sharp.

Gu Jinnian took the answer sheet and read it carefully. The person who dared to hand in the answer sheet first would naturally be different.

However, after Gu Jinnian finished reading the answer sheet.

Can't help being shocked.

Take the prosperous age as the theme.

This first answer sheet is actually aimed at the matter of land acquisition.

The general meaning of the article is that based on the conditions of the people's cultivated land, it is believed that the gap between the rich and the poor will become wider and wider.

Especially at present, in order to avoid taxation, many people hand over land to scholars or nobles.

Daxia's tax is calculated on the basis of headcount, no matter how much land you have or how many people are in your family, you have to pay how much tax.

This is the policy implemented by all major dynasties.

But in this answer sheet, it was proposed that it should be calculated according to the land.

Isn't this the same as sharing the land?

Great talent.

Great talent.

Gu Jinnian was overjoyed in his heart.

He understands that every penny goes to the mu, but he hopes that someone else will say it, so that the other party can implement it, and he only needs to correct the method.

It is impossible for the Great Xia Dynasty to prosper by itself.

It takes a group of people to make the dynasty flourish.

And this person is one of this group of people.

it is good.

very good.

Gu Jinnian took a deep breath, and he directly put a red bet on it.

【A class】

This is the highest rating.

After all the articles have been graded, if any of them are top-ranked, the Ministry of Rites will make a final ranking based on other factors.

The aspect ratio is the highest.

At this moment.

Gu Jinnian was full of joy, and the other great scholars couldn't help but praise him.

in this way.

After two hours.

One answer sheet was sent.

Gu Jinnian watched carefully.

Perhaps it was because the first article was so amazing that later on, Gu Jinnian felt average. Those who felt average, Gu Jinnian did not give a rating, and the great Confucian scholars would rate it.

Until Maoshi.

The second article caught Gu Jinnian's eyes.

The very first article put forward the good policy of 'spreading into the mu'.

However, the second article sharply pointed out that the matter of foreign trade on the border of Daxia is to use the economy to strengthen the country, and proposes to lift the sea ban, revitalize border trade, expand the country's commerce, reintroduce business taxes, and reduce taxes.

It coincides with my own thoughts.

Also talent.

Gu Jinnian still gave a top grade.

He is full of joy.

But right now.

A figure came quickly and spoke in Gu Jinnian's ear.

"Master Hou, there is a man named Su Huaiyu outside who said he has something urgent to call on you."

The other party spoke.

Gu Jinnian, who was full of joy, suddenly became serious.

Fairy Qingqian had an accident.

In an instant, Gu Jinnian guessed what happened.
